You mean Google Chrome Edge?
- Spivak 6y agoThis seems a little silly. Nobody calls it Google Chrome Vivaldi or Google Chrome Brave. Why the hate for Edge?
- Yizahi 6y agoGoogle Chrome Vivaldi or Google Chrome Brave - these are completely correct names, until they will fork Blink and start making different decisions from Chrome. I mean really different, not just setting different defaults in the code Google provides, like with Floc. PS: and speaking of Chrome mods - Edge is arguably the better one out of all of them. At least with MS we know their policies and main source of revenue, unlike with Brave or Vivaldi.
- gcthomas 6y agoVivaldi uses the Blink rendering engine from the Chromium project, itself just a fork of WebKit, but the application code is not from Chrome or Chromium (no code comes from Chrome, AFAIK.) So 'Google Blink Vivaldi' at best.
- Yizahi 6y agoChromium is an extremely convenient excuse for Google, but we all know that it is nothing more than a trailing version of Chrome with some modifications. Chromium is not a hard fork of Chrome and never was. Every significant change Google wants appears there too. Yes code, does come into Chromium first but that's just and extra step, meaningless really. Google carefully checks that anti monopoly laws wouldn't affect their second main cash cow.
- ernesth 6y agoAre you removing the infamous microsoft name to make it more frightening? Microsoft is terrible. Google is bad. Combining them in a browser was an evil achievement.
